Just
a quick note this morning. I am being
“worked in” at the new rheumatologist’s office for him to go over the lab work
he ordered last time I saw him. I’m
supposed to be there by 8:15. Not sure
what that means in real time. He
personally approved a “double book” to get me the appointment. I don’t know whether to feel special or
doomed. But my joints have still been
doing pretty well over the last month or so.
I am quite curious to see what his findings and recommendations are …
Yesterday
our worship pastor Jim and I walked the property at Seaside to identify some
specific jobs to be done at our big all-church workday on Saturday. We came up with a page full for each
building, so I think we can keep a few people busy. It means I have to make a Home Depot run
today, though. We want to have as many
of the supplies as possible before everyone arrives. There will be some things we’ll have to pick
up at the local hardware store, but that shouldn’t be a problem. One of the biggest issues is getting rid of
the bees that have taken up residence under the retreat center. We’d rather not kill them, of course, but we
have been having some problems getting a call back from the bee removal
guys. We may have to co-exist for the
workday Saturday, but they don’t seem to be the Africanized kind. They are quite focused on their task of
honey-making and I think they would only attack if they felt threatened. I’ll have to remember to mention that …

Corinthians 2:15-16 says, “For we are to
God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are
perishing. To the one we are the smell
of death; to the other, the fragrance of life. And who is equal to such a task?”
Father,
I’m really interested to know what the RA guy has to say today. I for one think you have had a lot to do with
the easing of pain in my joints, but I’m happy to hear whatever medical
explanation he wants to come up with.
Amen.
